From Inner-Circle To Inner-City

Royal Couple To Follow MOMA Gala With Stop At Unique D.C. School

(CBS)  Prince Charles and Camilla are into Day Two of their United States tour, after a long Day One, and star-studded night.

They fly to Washington, D.C. Wednesday where, reports The Early Show national correspondent Tracy Smith, they'll get a look at the School for Educational Evolution and Development (SEED), the nation's first urban, coed public boarding school.

The first hours of the royal visit were short on pageantry and long on emotion. Prince Charles said he was profoundly moved at Ground Zero.

For the most part, reports Smith, Camilla's first U.S. appearance as Duchess of Cornwall went well.

But not everyone was glad to see her: A handful of protesters gathered outside the United Nations building with signs telling Camilla, among other things, that she is not the late Princess Diana.

Camilla fared somewhat better Tuesday night, Smith adds, at a gala reception at New York's Museum of Modern Art.

"I think she's behaved herself with great dignity and grace through this whole thing," said actress Elaine Stritch.

From the inner-circle Tuesday night, the royal couple travels to the inner-city Wednesday, when they see the "Seed." They'll be shown around by two students.

Dayon says he "almost cried" when told he'd be pointing the way to Charles and Camilla: "I'm used to reading about this man, but I never expected… never expected."

"I thought they were pulling my leg," says Kendra. "I couldn't even believe that Laura Bush was coming."

Also on the Wednesday agenda: lunch at the White House, and a formal state dinner there.
